Part 8/10:
Marvel’s strategy involves announcing release dates years in advance—often before the film is fully locked, leading to forced releases if the movie isn’t ready. This pattern has caused delays and reallocation of schedules for multiple Marvel films, such as Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and pandemic-related disruptions in the UK have also contributed to delays, but some insiders question whether the core issue is the film’s quality. Given the magnitude of reshoots, it’s plausible Marvel is trying to fix narrative issues or strengthen weaker elements, possibly at the expense of the film’s coherence.
